ROLLING FOLDS
Google Maps : ( should open at Ashagami Lake )
Look for west arm of lake ( scan to tip of - ram horn ) Scad mine is inline with this ( lat ) just
across Kukagami road - between two water holes - north + south pits.

Question -
How does BMK know the Bristol is breccia ?
Was it just grab samples - chip samples - boulder samples ?
I was out today...and came across a breccia boulder - all smooth and roundedI knew i
t was not from the area - it most likely travelled hundreds of miles from where i pickedf it up.
Where am i headed with this ?
If samples were taken atop surface and breccia was confirmed, then....how does one know the breccia is throughout - as in - really deep ? What if it was just a few meters thick of reconsolodated ores corroded by alkai acids and reformed - making a thin capping ?
I would be an instant beleiver if Bristol was all breccia - if the drills were shown what the ores look like.... i'd never bring it up agaon...
Now... BMK has something special - going on ....
Lots of near surface hits...
If BMK drilled several holes from east side of Monaco - going into Bristol on the west,
And if Bristol breccia is a raise FOLD - it would mean by the time the drill hit the supposed breccia - it would be well below the 100m meter depth.
Lets back up time....
There are no folds - just flat lands. Hypothetical - ocean invades - chews apart the irons - deposits lots of salts + carbonates - gold is loosened from the irons...some get caught in the breccia , miners think its in the breccias while some other miners find it in the irons.
Breccia forms a thin crust atop surface - tectonic plates shift - folds occur
Geologist comes along and tests artop the bristol - even performs channel cuts....
Rock appears as if its breccia...but, how deep is the breccia, if the land incurred a fold ?
Logic would dictate = if there's no fault - and only a fold - it would only be an icing cap breccia And....benieth would be the standard host rock indigenous to its formation / environment..
Now lets bring forth the shallow drilll hits - 10m - 60m at lower elevation from - bristol.
Drill beginning at a step out from monaco going into bristol - would never hit the gold at 10m - 60m - all because the bristol fold is already raised - thus - the drill would miss the potential mineralization at shallow depths - due to bristol being at an elevated hietrh higher than monaco or scad -
Which is why i'd like ot see the cores of - bristol at depth...
Juast to see if the bristol is breccia benieth....
Why say all this ?
It brings us full circle - right back to - Google Maps....
And... a discussion on the folds.... .
If one clicks on google maps and manages to locate the scad mine - you'll have to revert back and forth to - terrain then satelite - to gain your bearings...
Once you have your bearings - it's quite apparent there's a 1000m strike running south west of the Scad mine - it appears it the same formation as, scad.
Now go back to the Scad mine -
directly west of the scad - you'll see the bristol fold - higher elevation - it appears it does have a connection to north pit - which is every reason to hit the bristol from atop - knowing its a fold at a higher elevation - hoping to nail the shallow gold -
Another system i like ...
It begins right at the ram horn tip - ( middle mound ) then, an upper north mound where they did 2019 tests - and a lower south small mound... that looks pretty sweet....
So why say all this ?
Besdies the point i like mining - it's mores opointing out BMK should be working - over the mounds and folds...vs - toying with a 3-D charge survey with the handicap of, ioro ore tailings spewed about the properties...( throws the readings off )
in short...
I'd be looking at this project old school style...
Mapping out every drill hit - and asking that og do important question - would the shallow gold als obe near surface on the higher elevations at same depth - atop of fold ?
Then... playing the folds that run north east to south west..
In my opinion they had great success around Scad ( ne sw )
And...round norrth pit - still similar lay lines.
I'd follow these sm ne - folds...atop and along side.
Again...i'm seeing a fold that's associated to the scad- running sw for over 1000m
The villeneuve - hmmm.
I would shoot across the kukagami road - and hit the rams horn - 3 mounds...
Just an observation...
Don't anyone get their panties in a knot...lol
It's just an opinion.
In a haunting voice...( wink )
Show me the bristol cores at the 100m - 300m depth...
Are they breccia ? lol
Just look at those north pit drill hits..( sweet )
Based on google maps - theres a small hump fold...to right of north pit.

Cheers....
P.S.
i wonder if a certasin other - will dream- about chlorites - tonight...tease.
